That story got me thinking.. If they can shut down 1,200 websites that are selling non-genuine goods, or failure to deliver goods.. Could a good lawyer make a case that a full length video sold by a website has been "counterfeited" by the re-encoding process at lower quality, and given away, thus de-valuing the copyright owners original works? The quality isn't the same, it's a copy.. Same as a fake Gucci purse no?
And it seems they went to a few departments in a government, rather than some national shit. 1,200 websites shut down, that's pretty big.
